SPINACH AND MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD WITH POPPYSEED DRESSING

Steps:

• Make your dressing first:.
• Add equal parts yogurt, mayonnaise and mix well.
• Add the honey and mix inches Adjust this to your tastes. It is generally lightly sweet and rounds out the flavors of the mayo and yogurt.
• Add the poppy seeds, mix in (if you don't have seeds, don't sweat it, they give a bit of texture but I have wanted this salad and run out and it is fine without it -- )
• Salad:
• Either mix the spinach, sliced water chestnuts and mandarin oranges, or make this directly on the plate. I usually break the water chestnuts because about a 1/2 slice and one mandarin orange plus a fork full of spinach leaves seems to be about perfect.
• Top with the dressing.
• See! Isn't that easy? Five minutes!
